Health Reform: Conservatives turning to LGBT for support?

- From the Equality Florida Blog -

Tom Coburn says whaaa?
by Mallory Wells

This was a story too good to pass up posting.

Tom Coburn is a Republican senator from the state of Oklahoma. He has written an opinion piece for The Advocate Online that calls on the LGBT community to oppose "government health care rationing", i.e. public option healthcare. He does this by invoking the Ryan White Act, contending that thousands of Americans have, and will die, and millions of dollars will be spent on ineffective government programs. In the end of his piece he states we can make sure "every man, woman and child in this country has access to quality, affordable health care" without "creating an inefficient and expensive government program."

Now, I'm no expert on healthcare, and surely in the LGBT community there are various opinions as to what Congress and the President should be doing. My issue here is Tom Coburn turning to the LGBT community for support. This man has no business trying to woo us. Let's take a walk down Tom Coburn memory lane, and examine his positions on our issues.

In Tom Coburn's mind, the "gay agenda" is the biggest danger facing America today.

"The gay community has infiltrated the very centers of power in every area across this country, and they wield extreme power...That agenda is the greatest threat to our freedom that we face today. Why do you think we they rationalization for abortion and multiple sexual partners? That's a gay agenda."

Coburn has opposed gay marriage and in 2006 voted for the Federal Marriage Amendment, which would have put into the US Constitution that marriage is between one man and one woman. He also opposes gay adoption and anonymous HIV testing.

Perhaps most famous of all of his anti-gay statements is this:

"Lesbianism is so rampant in some of the schools in southeast Oklahoma that they'll only
let one girl go to the bathroom. Now this about that. Think about that issue. How is it that
that's happened to us?"

So, while we may not all agree on the solution to healthcare, we can agree that Tom Coburn has no business courting a community he has vilified time and time again.

Blah

I haven't posted in a while. Sometimes I wonder whether it's worth having this blog, domain and all. So yeah, these past two days have been probably the worst so far of 2009. So on Tuesday I got my license (yay) and that kinda boosted my self-esteem a bit (after 2 previously-failed attempts). However, it's not even a week yet and I already got into an accident (fml, right?). This is when the ranting begins:

I wake up on Thursday morning, looking forward to the GSA meeting after school. Everything runs smoothly at school and the meeting exceeded my expectations. It's not until I hit the road that all hell breaks loose. I had to run some errands and I was running a bit late for work.
I got there about 5 minutes late, only to find out some pretty depressing news. Christina C., a former co-worker, died earlier that day in a car crash. I also found out that one of my managers quit, so I offered to stay for a bit longer to help out. We tried our best to move on and work, but nevertheless the mood at BK was a bit solemn and depressing
So the day goes on and we try to move on. Or at least, we try to.

The night goes on, along with a few water fights, chases, sauce throwing, baking, and whatnot. So at around 10:30 I get ready to leave. When I get to the parking lot, I find out that my car is engulfed by a variety of BK sauces (from BBQ to Zesty, lol).
Long story, short, I go back inside and get my revenge. As I quickly head out to my car, Josh chases me down the parking lot. I get inside the car and pull out of the parking spot, but he somehow gets in the way and, to avoid hitting him, I'm forced to turn sharply.

I ended up crashing into another co-worker's car...Yeah, 2 days after I get my license. Blah. From then on, my weekend gets progressively worse. I'll update later.

Lis.

CNN endorsing piracy?

In a recent article "Seven good reasons to switch to Windows 7" published on CNN.com, Brian Chen lists Piracy as one of those reasons because apparently, Windows 7 is "pirate-friendly."

Full Article

Piracy

Yarr! We know there are plenty of you out there downloading pirated digital booty, especially in Windows land. But it's never been convenient to be a pirate compared with being a paying customer. For example, if you're a legitimate buyer purchasing movies off iTunes, you can easily stream your media to your legitimately purchased Apple TV. If you're a pirate, you'd have to go through roundabout programs and hardware to re-create the experience.

Windows 7 is an OS practically made for pirates. Want to display your movies, photos or music on your TV? Bam! Windows Media Player will do that out of the box if you have a Wi-Fi enabled TV, or an Xbox. No extra programs to install: Windows Media Player seamlessly communicates with your Wi-Fi device to display your illegal content in all its glory on your fancy HD TV.

And sharing media is easy, too. Want to download all of your brother's music? Bam! HomeGroup, an easy networking feature included in Windows 7, will make that super easy between computers running the OS. Immediately upon plugging in to your network with Ethernet or Wi-Fi, HomeGroup will ask if you wish to join the group on the network, allowing you to set up easy file sharing in minutes.


Just thought I'd share; not to be taken too seriously =P

ENDA

Are you LGBT? Do you have a job in the US?

If so, then did you know that right now you could be fired from that job just for being GLBT or associated with a GLBT person?* Yes, just for being gay.

Ridiculous, isn't it? Well, recently a bill known as the "Employment Non-Discrimination Act" (ENDA) was introduced into the Senate. If the bill passes, it will prohibit employment discrimination
on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity.

Please call or meet with your Senators ASAP and urge them to co-sponsor ENDA!
